In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mm: prevent derefencing NULL ptr in pfn_section_valid() Commit 5ec8e8ea8b77 ("mm/sparsemem: fix race in accessing memory_section->usage") changed pfn_section_valid() to add a READ_ONCE() call around "ms->usage" to fix a race with section_deactivate() where ms->usage can be cleared. The READ_ONCE() call, by itself, is not enough to prevent NULL pointer dereference. We need to check its value before dereferencing it.

The remote Ubuntu 20.04 LTS / 22.04 LTS host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-7009-1 advisory.

    Chenyuan Yang discovered that the CEC driver driver in the Linux kernel contained a use-after-free     vulnerability. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash) or possibly     execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2024-23848)

    Chenyuan Yang discovered that the USB Gadget subsystem in the Linux kernel did not properly check for the     device to be enabled before writing. A local attacker could possibly use this to cause a denial of     service. (CVE-2024-25741)

    It was discovered that the JFS file system contained an out-of-bounds read vulnerability when printing     xattr debug information. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash).

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

The version of kernel installed on the remote CBL Mariner 2.0 host is prior to tested version. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the CVE-2024-41055 advisory.

  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mm: prevent derefencing NULL ptr in     pfn_section_valid() Commit 5ec8e8ea8b77 (mm/sparsemem: fix race in accessing memory_section->usage)     changed pfn_section_valid() to add a READ_ONCE() call around ms->usage to fix a race with     section_deactivate() where ms->usage can be cleared. The READ_ONCE() call, by itself, is not enough to     prevent NULL pointer dereference. We need to check its value before dereferencing it. (CVE-2024-41055)

    Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in the Linux kernel that     may lead to a privilege escalation, denial of service or information     leaks.

    For the oldstable distribution (bullseye), these problems have been     fixed in version 5.10.223-1.

    We recommend that you upgrade your linux packages.
